While on the mission, Cheng Haoyu always missed this feeling. At this moment, being able to fall asleep while holding Zheng Xinyi like this is really an unspeakable happiness for him.
When Cheng Haoyu slowly opened his eyes again, it was already dark. He looked up at the busy figure in the kitchen, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, he rubbed his eyes with his hands, walked over quietly, and hugged Zheng Xinyi from behind.
"Haoyu, Cuiping is here!" Zheng Xinyi gently nudged him with her elbow, and cast a slightly shy look at Bai Cuiping who was standing aside and being ignored.
As soon as the words fell, Cheng Haoyu looked up and saw Bai Cuiping. He immediately loosened his arms around Zheng Xinyi, and the scene suddenly became awkward. His smile was full of unnaturalness: "Cuiping, thank you for your hard work."
Bai Cuiping noticed his embarrassment, smiled slightly, and deliberately changed the subject: "I didn't want to disturb your little world of two tonight, but Xinyi said she had to come, so I came."
"You have been taking good care of Xinyi during this period. Now that I am back, the first thing I must do is to thank you in person." Cheng Haoyu looked as if he would feel uneasy if he could not thank you in person.
"Captain Cheng, you are so polite. Living in these troubled times, we should all take care of each other." Bai Cuiping responded with a smile.
Because the military hospital was busy, Huang Lei and Zhao Yuenan arrived very late. The food that had been prepared long ago was already cold. When they hurried over, they looked very apologetic: "We are so sorry, we are late. We made you wait for so long. Are you all starving?"
"No, we are having a great chat! You guys sit down first, I'll take the food over to heat it up." As she spoke, Zheng Xinyi had already stood up, picked up the plate of food, and prepared to walk towards the kitchen.
"Xinyi, I won't bother you with such a small matter. I'll do it." Zhao Yuenan took the plate of food from her hand and said.
"That's right, with the two of us here, why do you need to do anything? Just sit here and wait for your food!" Bai Cuiping stood up, put her hands on her shoulders, and pushed her back onto the stool.
"Oh! The opportunities for the six of us to get together are getting fewer and fewer, and I'm afraid there will be even fewer opportunities in the future, so let's cherish the present time!" Cheng Haoyu suddenly sighed.
"Yeah! I don't know how long this war will end?" Wang Ye sighed softly and responded casually.
"New wounded are sent to the military hospital every day. We are really busy now. We live in a world of racing against time every day. I don't know how long we can hold on like this. Maybe one day we really can't bear the pressure and collapse." Huang Lei said with a wry smile.
Cheng Haoyu and Huang Lei exchanged a glance, and an understanding arm rested on his shoulder. "Right now, the medical staff in your military hospital are working the hardest, even harder than those of us on the battlefield. But it's precisely because of you, the pillars of support, that we have more strength to fight and kill the enemy. Huang Lei, you military doctors are all great."
Huang Lei smiled slightly, rolled his eyes at them, and said in a half-joking, half-serious tone: "What are you two doing? Complimenting me here? I tell you, there's no need. We military doctors are great and selfless. It's our responsibility to treat you, not to get your praise."
